[Histonet] RE: New Reagent Lot Verification

[Debra Siena]

I have heard that you should keep the slides for 2 years or longer if your state requires it.

My interpretation is that you have to compare the new lot to the previous.  So I save the slides, so I have the previous to compare it to.   But after that lot comparison, I don't know if you should save the slides or not.  I'd like to know for sure, since I will surely run out of storage space soon. 
I save the paperwork for the required time as well.

ANP.22760 refers to new lot verification for antibodies and detection. The Evidence of Compliance says that there should be "Records of verification of new reagent lots". What is everyone's interpretation of "records"? Are you saving slides in addition to paper documentation?
